Update

So I was told that I needed to update my blog by several people. I guess I didn't realize how popular and "interesting" these blogs really are. Apparently some people like to hear me go on and on about my kiddos because well.....that's all I ever really talk about. We all had a great week!!

Reese has a new nickname at school. They call her "ME ME" Erickson. The reason being is because when asked a question such as..."Who made this mess?" or "Who would like this toy?" Reese will always respond "Me do it" or "Me want it" and well.....her teachers apparently think it's pretty funny and gave her a new name. We get a daily report on her and sometimes the name at the top says MeMe and not Reese. :)

The Erickson clan went to the Springdale Harber tailgate Friday night at the high school. The Youth Group hosted it and the girls had a blast. Of course being a Springdale Alumni I just had to make the girls some Springdale t-shirts to go along with the festivites. Springdale lost, but we all had a good time. Check out the pics.

Anna Grace found her feet this week. She sure likes to eat her toes! It's cute when they are little, but let's hope this isn't a habit that she carries into to her older years. Hope you enjoy the pic.

My Aunt Olive and cousin Kenny are here visiting from Wisconsin. Kenny brought his beautiful daughter Hannah and we are all having a great time hanging out with them. We all as a family ventured down to Bikes Blues and BBQ this afternoon. Boy oh boy was that a mistake!!! I sort of knew that before venturing down there, but then thought what the hey....the girls might enjoy it. Let's just say me and the girls lasted a good 30 minutes after venturing down Dickson. Corey was able to stay down longer with some family....which is fine with me. He really enjoys it and it's good that he can do it without having to worry about the girls.

OH! Almost forgot about the soccer game today. For those of you that don't know, Corey is coaching Olivia's soccer team. Let's just say that the Lemon Drops aren't the best under 6 girls soccer team, but boy are we cute and we also have a great time. Corey said on the way to the game this morning that we WOULD score a goal. The girls play "8" 5 minute periods. We got into period number 5 and stil had not scored a goal. Corey decided that bribery was going to be our next trick and told the girls that for every goal they scored he would pay them a quarter.....BIG mistake!! We scored 3 goals after he said that. Being the mom that I am I knew that only paying a quarter to the girl that scored the goal wouldn't be fair so me and a grandmother of one of our players rummaged around during the last 10 minutes of the game to find 2 quarters for each one of the girls. I know....you are probably thinking that doesn't add up....only 2 quarters for 3 goals. Let's just say the girls didn't question it so we are going to leave it at that.

I guess that's it for now. Sorry for the long post......guess I better keep up with this more than just weekly.
